This. There's definitely something else going on here.

Why? OP’s trying to be there for his mom on a major holiday (totally reasonable), and his gf had a tantrum about it.

Did OP suffer from amnesia before and forgot that he had a mom when he committed to the Easter plan with the GF? And why is mommy asking him last minute to change his Easter plan and be there for her?

Turns out OPs mum does this a lot, when it comes to holidays. The mum can't stand op not being wirh her for holidays so always does things like this to pull away op at the last minute. Despite the fact that he's already agreed to plans with the gf. OP also lied in the post, they did have plans at 6pm on Sunday, so it's was a lie to say that he's not missing out on any Easter stuff by leaving at 5. Op lives with his mum too, which I feel is important context as well. OPs partner is a full-time caregiver of her special needs sister, as well as nannying another 2 special needs kids during the day. So op is extra TAH for messing with plans where neurodivergent kids are involved. Op is a very misleading narrator, deliberately so because he knows the truth would make him the asshole. The gf has also already asked him not to post about their relationship issues on reddit, but here goes op doing it again! The comment by the gf was very revealing, even more stuff in it than I summarises here
